  • Well am back from a testing and trying weekend. It was a lovely place and everyone meant well.

    I dont know how often I will be on here for the next few days, I am not in a good place at all and I dont want to be silly about things.


    My washer is fixed, on the upside

    ((hugs to all))

  • aww skint :grouphug:group hug for you! Things always happen in 3's they say! that'd be your washing machine, ebay & cooker! So at least you know things will start to look up now! I've had a carp week too last week. Ebay problems (mine ended up with 1st negative feedback EVER) a trashed house that I've had to spend all our savings on & dh grandad having a massive stroke...i just keep thinking, things must be looking up now surely?! I hope you're feeling more like your positive happy self soon and money can be saved again. It might put you back a few months, or it might just make you more determined to work harder (i think the latter with you :)) and still succeed! So chin up & hope to see you on here soon :A

    Hugs to you SBO hun, hope your week gets better and better for you xxxxx

    On my plus side ... have managed to get the time off for aunty's funeral so just have to book the travel for me and my dad, am busy playing woohoo just now ... in the vain hope that I can start saving vouchers up like Gargrave for next Christmas! Aiming for a no or little-spend Christmas next year ... hopefully OH will manage to get himself elected to the council and then have double wages coming in so loads can get put towards debt repayments and hopefully we can start saving towards F&F's for them all!

    Hugs hun, hope you feel better soon xxx
